What is the best way to control and eliminate avocado lace bug? I have on hand Monterey Garden Insect, Captain Jack Deadbug, and AllSeasonal Horticultural & dormant spray oil. However, they are label as a control mechanism for lacebug. What are my options?

Anything that is spinosad based is THE thing to use on lacebugs, much better than Neem, dormant oils or soaps.

Remember that they feed on the UNDERSIDE of the leaves.

I used imidacloprid and this is my avocado tree before and after lace bug infestation. 4 months for old infested leaves to shed and be replaced by new healthy ones
